Some children simply need more time to settle in
At the beginning, many children need one thing above all: a sense of security. New routines, new faces, and so many impressions first have to become familiar. When everything still feels unfamiliar, children often show it quietly – through withdrawal, tension, or tiredness.
Kindergarten should feel like a place where trust can grow.
With us, relationship comes first – then discovery
Dedicated caregivers
Children build trust and are truly known.
Rituals & clear structure provide stability
Recurring routines create security and independence.
Nature & farm days on our own farm
Being outdoors and moving helps children regulate, strengthens motor skills, and clears the mind.
Age-appropriate support in everyday life
Language, social skills, creativity – playful, without pressure.
What children develop with us – because they feel safe
Your child’s hero’s journey begins here
With security, sensory experience, and a real connection to nature, we create the foundation for strong personalities.
This is what a day with us feels like
How we specifically support children
Our kindergarten prepares children purposefully and age-appropriately for the transition to primary school – whether at Acton Academy or within the public school system. Our program is based on the Cantonal Curriculum 21 and at the same time includes space for independent projects, nature days, and philosophical conversations.

Who supports my child –
and how do you stay in touch with us?
In kindergarten, relationship is everything. That’s why we show you our team, our caregiver principle, and how communication really works in everyday life.
Transitions that provide security
Daycare → Kindergarten
We accompany the separation consciously – with clear steps, trust, and individual support. Parents share knowledge, we build on it.
Kindergarten → School
The transition to school is prepared – without pressure: children gain self-confidence, structure, and joy in learning.
Accompanying your child’s development together
In kindergarten, parents are kept regularly informed via digital daily updates and direct handovers. Learning processes are documented in individual portfolios.
Development meetings take place once or twice a year. The transition to primary school is prepared early and accompanied in close coordination with the parents.
